Each chart shows one value per year; the dot marks the record year. TXx is the hottest daily maximum, TNn the coldest daily minimum, Rx1day and Rx5day the largest one-day and five-day rain totals, and CDD the longest run of days with less than 1 mm of rain. A year with missing days can understate an extreme.

Frost Dates and Growing Season

67 years with a frost

Across 67 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Goliad falls on 25 February and the median first autumn frost on 29 November, which leaves a median of 275 days between them.

In 1978 to 2011 the median growing season was 275 days. That is 2 days fewer than in 1938 to 1969.

Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +0.2 days per decade at this station.

Frost dates and growing season at Goliad
Measure	Median, all years	Earliest period (1938 to 1969)	Recent period (1978 to 2011)	Recent against earliest	Fitted trend
Last spring frost	25 February	24 February	1 March	5 days later	-0.2 days per decade
First autumn frost	29 November	1 December	30 November	1 day earlier	-0.1 days per decade
Growing days	275 days	277 days	275 days	2 days fewer	+0.2 days per decade

A frost day is a day with a daily minimum at or below 0 C (32 F). The last spring frost and the first autumn frost are the last and first such days of the cold season, and growing days are the days between them. A negative trend for the last spring frost means it comes earlier.

Rainfall Return Levels

97 years, 1913 to 2012

A day with at least 90.8 mm (3.6 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 244.7 mm (9.6 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

Rainfall return levels at Goliad: the daily rain expected about once in a given number of years
Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	90.8 mm (3.6 in)
5 years	129.3 mm (5.1 in)
10 years	155.9 mm (6.1 in)
25 years	190.7 mm (7.5 in)
50 years	217.4 mm (8.6 in)
100 years	244.7 mm (9.6 in)	Longer than the 97 years of record

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 97 years of values from 1913 to 2012.

A return level is an estimate. It is least reliable for the long periods, 50 and 100 years, and for any period longer than the record behind the fit, where the fit has to reach past the largest day actually observed. It is not a forecast.

The largest wettest-day totals in the fit: 232.7 mm (9.2 in) in 1967; 204.0 mm (8.0 in) in 1960; 198.1 mm (7.8 in) in 1981.
